Yes. It should complete without issue.
There are a few caveats.
You must perform the BIOS upgrade with power on and do not remove power before the update is complete.
If you fail to follow the two BIOS update rules in the previous sentence, you could actually brick your notebook.
Brick=transform your notebook into a useless expensive paperweight.
The update appears to be worthwhile. The following image shows most of the enhancements that are all rolled up into the latest BIOS update.

BIOS update created a recovery partion, can I remove it now and how please ?
I would leave it alone.
If in the future a recovery is needed from a corrupt BIOS, the original BIOS version will be there.
(Windows key + the B key for BIOS recovery or rollback to previous version)
